Re: Sounds Like a Good Idea TO Me

Are you using their Linksys or Dlink router?
I have the 6086, I bought it because I have no coverage in my new house, and cell phone coverage wasn't really a consideration when buying.
But I've never been able to get the phone to hold a conection with any router I've tried. That includes a WRT54GX2, my current Buffalo WZR2-G300N, and the Verizon Provided Actiontec. I've spent hours on the phone with T-Mobile and keep getting the same exact run around, and I've had the handset replaced once, and even bought the Samsung only to return it.
On the otherhand my Viatalk service is working wonderfully now that I have FIOS.

I am using Tomato GNU/Linux 1.16 on a Buffalo WHR-G54S with QoS configured to always prio the phones. I created a DHCP lease reservation based on MAC so both phones (wife's and mine) are configured with the same IANA reserved address.

I eventually disabled wireless on the WHR-G54S due to sporadic reboot as a result of specific wireless behavior and a buggy wl.o drive. I am now using WAP54G as an AP which connects to the WHR-G54S.

Thank you, I've never looked at Tomato. I have DD-WRT on an old WRT54G in my upstairs office, I use it as a bridge.
I had the Buffalo reserve an address for the phone, and though I had QOS set up right. Maybe it is time for me to sit down and play with this again. I just got tired of the error codes.
